Permadeath (a portmanteau of permanent death) is a game mechanic in both tabletop games and video games in which player characters who lose all of their health are considered dead and cannot be used anymore; it is one form of death in video games. Depending on the situation, this could require the player to create a new character to continue, or completely restart the game potentially losing nearly all progress made.
